"We'll go to work at once.

Then I'll give the _Dartaway_ a little try-out, and if she runs as she should I'll take her back to your home." "Don't you want a passenger ?" asked Sam and Tom in a breath.
"Why, do you want to go ?" "Sure!" "I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you.

I want to try the machine several times before I risk taking anybody up." The Snubble boys were delighted to think they could see the _Dartaway_ fly and they assisted the others in making the necessary repairs.

For two hours all were very busy and then Captain Colby announced the biplane in as good a condition as before the wild flight.
"Now I'll give her a short try-out," he said, and this was done.

Up into the air mounted the _Dartaway_ as gracefully as a bird, and all of the boys clapped their hands in delight.
"By gum! beats the nation!" said one of the Snubble lads.
"It's grand! I'm going to save up for one!" added the other.
Around the field sailed Captain Colby and then made the figure eight three times.
